Driving west on Bridge Street, on my way to the Tandy Hills or Oakland Lake Park, there is a building that, over the years, has been the location of more than one restaurant or bar.

Some time ago, maybe as long as two years ago, the building housed, if I remember right, a bar called Rockstar Bar.

Rockstar Bar did not rock long.

A few months ago it appeared that the former Rockstar Bar building was being dismantled.

Appearances can be deceiving.

Soon a sign appeared on the building saying "COIN LAUNDRY OPENING SOON."

I remember thinking, how odd, this does not seem like it would be a good location for a laundromat.

Then, about a month ago, a billboard appeared, followed by new signage on the building.

The billboard and signage inform passersby that the former Rockstar Bar is about to become Tiny Bubbles COIN LAUNDRY SERVING CHINESE & FAST FOOD GRILL

I'm not sure what Chinese & Fast Food Grill means, available in a restaurant called COIN LAUNDRY.

But, I have a hunch that this time the restaurant at this location is going to be around awhile. I suspect it will be opening quite soon, because it was being worked on today, with today being a Sunday, known as a day of rest, when most construction projects don't get worked on.
